Join Host Lyle Perez for a chilling finale to the Haunted America series as he explores the haunted history of Washington, D.C., on Halloween night. As the center of political power, the nation's capital holds layers of dark secrets, historic tragedies, and spectral presences. From the halls of the White House to the eerie streets of Lafayette Square, D.C. is alive with ghostly tales that reveal a side of history rarely discussed. Grab a warm drink, dim the lights, and get ready for a journey into the capital's haunted sites. Featured Locations: The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20500 Home to more than just presidents, the White House hosts famous spirits like Abraham Lincoln, who's been seen by countless staff and guests. Queen Wilhelmina even fainted upon seeing his apparition. Dolley Madison is rumored to protect the Rose Garden, while Abigail Adams' ghost has been seen in the East Room. Public tours offer a glimpse into the residence, though ghostly encounters are never guaranteed. The Octagon House 1799 New York Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20006 This unique mansion, built in 1801, is haunted by the spirits of two Tayloe daughters who fell to their deaths in the staircase. Visitors report hearing footsteps, doors slamming, and feeling watched, especially in the ballroom. The house is open as a museum, inviting visitors to learn about its tragic history. The Capitol Building First St SE, Washington, D.C. 20004 The U.S. Capitol is haunted by the mysterious “Demon Cat,” a ghostly omen of disaster, and by John Quincy Adams, who collapsed and died in the building. Cold spots, whispers, and eerie figures are common, particularly in the rotunda. Guided tours provide access to this historical—and haunted—monument. Lafayette Square Across from the White House, Lafayette Square's dark past is marked by murder and scandal. The ghost of Philip Barton Key II, murdered by Congressman Daniel Sickles, is said to roam here. Shadowy figures and phantom gunshots disturb this otherwise serene park, making it a must-visit for thrill-seekers. The Old Stone House 3051 M St NW, Washington, D.C. 20007 Dating back to 1765, the Old Stone House is D.C.'s oldest unchanged structure. It's haunted by “George,” a spectral carpenter, and a child who tugs at visitors' clothing. Guests report feeling cold hands and hearing whispers, adding to its allure as a museum with deep-rooted mysteries. The National Theatre 1321 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20004 Known as “The Theatre of Presidents,” the National Theatre is haunted by the “Lady in White,” seen backstage and in the audience. Disembodied laughter and footsteps heighten its ghostly charm. Patrons attending performances may find themselves in the presence of D.C.'s most dedicated spectral audience. The Exorcist Steps, Georgetown 36th St NW & Prospect St NW, Washington, D.C. 20007 Made famous by The Exorcist, these narrow steps hold an ominous presence. Many report feeling watched or hearing footsteps echoing behind them, especially at night. It's a notorious location for those seeking real-life frights in the heart of Georgetown. The Hay-Adams Hotel 800 16th St NW, Washington, D.C. 20006 Overlooking Lafayette Square, the Hay-Adams Hotel is haunted by the spirit of Clover Adams, whose presence is felt through cold spots, flickering lights, and the scent of lavender. The fourth floor is particularly active, drawing guests who hope for a ghostly encounter during their stay. The Smithsonian Castle 1000 Jefferson Dr SW, Washington, D.C. 20560 James Smithson, the Smithsonian's founder, is said to haunt this Gothic structure. His spirit has been seen in the hallways, with footsteps and ghostly whispers adding to the building's aura. Visitors can explore the castle's history and perhaps feel Smithson's presence watching over his legacy. The Congressional Cemetery 1801 E St SE, Washington, D.C. 20003 This historic cemetery is home to prominent figures, and visitors often report eerie encounters, including the spirit of Clara Barton. Ghost tours reveal the haunted side of this iconic cemetery, with flickering lights and murmurs from beyond.

There’s all kinds of possibilities, such as crafts and gifts from The Hive as well as skin care products from North Shea. Find out more in the link in the newsletter.In today’s show:Virginia’s Electors confirm the Commonwealth’s vote for President-elect Joe Biden election Charlottesville Planning Commission gets an update on the Cville Plans Together folksCharlottesville is developing a Climate Action PlanA very brief update on Smart ScaleOn the day after the first COVID vaccines were administered in the United States of America, the Virginia Department of Health reports another 3,160 new cases. The seven day average for positive cases is now at 3,654. The seven-day average for positive PCR tests is at 11.2 percent statewide. In the Blue Ridge Health District, there are another 40 cases reported today and the seven-day average is 73 new cases a day. There has been another COVID-related fatality in Nelson County, bringing the total to 85. The University of Virginia will make a final decision by January 15 on whether to return to school for in-person instruction, but are operating under the assumption classes will begin on February 1. UVA Today reports that top officials sent an email to students, staff and faculty notifying them of requirements. *Virginia’s 13 electors cast their vote for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris yesterday in a hearing held on the floor of the Virginia House of Delegates. Ellen J. Scott of Manasass was one of them and made these remarks before the official vote. “The afternoon of April 9, 1865 at Appomattox Court House, marked the end of the most divisive era in our nation’s history and the healing began in Virginia,” Scott said. “Though not perfect, and fraught with broken promises, there emerged a people determined to hold America to its espoused and its Constitutional declaration that all men are created equal.” Scott also mentioned the election of the grandson of enslaved people, Doug Wilder, as Virginia’s governor in 1990, as well as Virginia’s vote for Barack Obama in 2008. “Now, Virginia has helped to elect Joseph Biden and Kamala Harris,” Scott said. “Harris, the first woman and the first Black president of the United States. As we exercise our role as electors, let us never forget that we are heeding the words of Lincoln to bind up our nation’s wounds.”The final nationwide electoral count was 302 votes for Biden and Harris and to 232 for the incumbents Donald Trump and Mike Pence. * It has been almost a year since the consultant Rhodeside & Harwell was hired to complete Charlottesville’s Comprehensive Plan and create an affordable housing plan. The city’s Planning Commission got an update last week on where the housing plan stands from the project manager of the Cville Plans Together initiative. “We’re revising the plan now and we’ll have a revision in the coming month or so and the plan right now is to have a conversation with Council in January and then hopefully work towards some sort of endorsement by Council of the plan,” said Jennifer Koch of Rhodeside & Harwell. The next step is for Council to be presented with the draft plan early next year. Their endorsement will allow the consultant team to move ahead with revising the Comprehensive Plan to include specific language that will lead the city to implement its principles. For instance, if there is to be more residential density, the plan needs to say so. That in turn will inform the new zoning code that the Cville Plans Together initiative is also intended to deliver. While the public comment period for this revision is closed, you can still review the materials on the Cville Plans Together website. Review and revision of the Comprehensive Plan has been underway since early 2017. In February 2019, Council opted to hire a consultant to finish the work begun by the Planning Commission. Koch said the Cville Plans Together work did not start from scratch. “We are working from draft chapters,” Koch said. “We’re not starting from zero here so the thought is that we don’t want to go back. We want to move forward from where you all left off.”One of the topics discussed by the Commission was the status of a future Land Use Map. “The Comprehensive Plan Land Use chapter contains the Future Land Use Map which incorporates some of the land use goals that are in the plan but also is a long-term strategy for land use in the city,” Koch said. “It often is sort of the basis for some zoning adjustments but the future land use map is also often a longer term vision for land use that zoning may be.”Commissioner Gary Heaton, who was appointed in October 2018, said the University of Virginia’s role needed to be taken into account.“Where the city ends and the University of Virginia begins, our land use map should reflect how we envision the future of the city as it pertains to the effect of the University on the city,” Heaton said. He added that he has been a planning commissioner in other university towns including Blacksburg.“These are places that also have been heavily affected by the University,” Heaton said. “If the city could someone get out in front of there could be ways to address affordable housing.” On March 10, the University of Virginia announced it would build up to 1,500 affordable units on land it or its real estate foundation owns. The topic came up at a meeting of the Regional Housing Partnership last week. Colette Sheehy is the Senior Vice President for Operations at UVA. “We have now restarted that initiative, more probably coming in January, but we are trying to get back on track,” Sheehy said. On Friday, the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the UVA Board of Visitors approved the schematic design for the new School of Data Science on Ivy Road, just to the west of the former site of the Cavalier Inn. It will be the first academic building constructed in the area of the Ivy Road Master Plan. “The four-story facility will include four ‘smart’ classrooms, faculty offices, and a variety of meeting and research areas that will provide essential learning, research, and administrative spaces to support the SDS,” reads the packet for the meeting. “The programs will interface with industry and other external partners in a “corporate commons” providing opportunities for the exchange of ideas.”The current land use map adopted by Council in 2013 depicts the area as “mixed use.” Disagreements about the future land use map are one reason the Comprehensive Plan process stalled and the consultant was hired. A longer version of this story as well as a podcast version will be published later today for paid subscribers, and released to the general public in a few days time. *In October, Charlottesville City Council announced the city would follow Albemarle in writing an action plan to help meet the locality’s climate protection goal. Specifically, the target is to reduce carbon emissions 45 percent by 2030 and to be carbon neutral by 2050. The Albemarle Board of Supervisors adopted such a plan on October 8. Last night, the city held the first of two workshops to kick off the creation of the plan. Susan Elliott is Charlottesville’s Climate Protection Manager. She said that in 2017, Council signed off on a statement objecting to President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement.“This is not the first commitment the city of Charlottesville made,” Elliott said. “The first one was actually the U.S. Mayor’s Agreement on climate back in 2006 which is what spurred the city to create the climate protection program in 2007.”In 2019, Council agreed to a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 45 percent by 2030, and to be carbon neutral by 2050. There is also a corresponding plan to adapt to changing weather patterns with higher temperatures. “We also heard from the community that they don’t want us to waste time by reinventing the wheel,” Elliott said. “They want us to build on what we’ve done. They want us to build on what their peers have done. They want us to work regionally so that we are building on existing systems for funding, for development, and for cooperation.”Emissions can be traced to residential, commercial and transportation sources. The plan will identify steps to address each. You can watch the recorded webinars on the city’s website. *We’re about a month away from when the Virginia Department of Transportation releasing the scores for the latest round of Smart Scale. Smart Scale is a process where localities submit projects that are then ranked according to a series of metrics. Submissions were due in August. Chad Tucker is with the Office of Intermodal Planning and Investment and he briefed the Commonwealth Transportation Board last week. “It’s been a long six months but we’re almost there, thankfully,” Tucker said. “There are 405 total applications that were submitted by applicants.Fifteen projects were submitted by either Albemarle, Charlottesville or the TJPDC.

(agenda)*Tonight, the Albemarle Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on a proposal to redevelop the Red Carpet Inn on U.S. 29 as a mixed-use development with commercial space and in between 80 and 140 units. In the meantime, the existing rooms in the hotel would be used as transitional housing operated by the Thomas Jefferson Coalition for the Homeless (TJACH). For this to work, the project needs a rezoning of a 3.75 acre property.In other meetings:Charlottesville’s Parking Advisory Panel meets at 3:30 p.m. (meeting info)Albemarle Economic Development Authority meets at 4 p.m. (meeting info)Charlottesville’s Sister Cities Commission meets at 4:30 p.m. Last week, City Council agreed to pursue a friendship with Huehuetenango, a city in western Guatemala (meeting info)Charlottesville’s Board of Architectural Review meets at 5:30 p.m. and will take up an application for an already-approved four-story building at the site of the University Tire on West Main Street.

I took some rain sounds before the radio broadcast of some October rain. When I got inside to edit them, I loaded them up and thought "wow the sound of the small droplets onto the surface of the large puddles sounds really cool! I should go out and get more of that sound!" but by the time I figured that out, it had stopped raining. Anyway, if you're in the area come and say hi, the house is a hop skip and jump away from the west side koibito.

Writing Work. Victuals Love. Sorghum and Salt. Welcome to the third in a series of FOUR podcasts celebrating the Virginia Festival of the Book! From March 16th-19th you will hear from the country's best and brightest when it comes to food writing. Today's episode? Food writer Ronni Lundy whose newest creation, Victuals, is a celebration of Appalachian foodways, one ingredient at a time. Victuals just won the 2017 IACP award for American Cookbook of the Year and is a finalist for the James Beard award in American Cooking. Seed saver Bill Best has called Victuals, "The 67th book of the bible!" and I agree wholeheartedly. This volume is going all the way baby! Ronni will be appearing at three events as part of the festival, including a talk I'm moderating, "Save Room! Cookbooks With a Sweet Tooth!" Event details are listed below. This episode is a re-airing of the lovely talk I had with Ronni at the tail end of the 2015 Appalachian Food Summit. Can you really get a sense of a region's history through one ingredient? This food writer and Appalachia advocate knows you can. Her books, Victuals, and Sorghum's Savor do just that. While both contain recipes, a good portion of the books talk about ingredient history, what each is and isn't, and the fascinating stories behind the folks who bring that food to your table. As one of the founders of the Appalachian Food Summit, Ronni knows such stories are integral to understanding the evolution of a culture. Which is why we begin this episode's discussion around the history of salt. At the 2015 gathering, we were fortunate enough to have Nancy Bruns of JQ Dickinson Salt Works, a 7th generation salt farmer. Nancy considers salt an agricultural ingredient because in her words it is harvested from the ground and ripened by the sun. The history and evolution of this ingredient relate well to Appalachia's history as a land of extraction, as well as providing a base camp for all sorts of stories and anecdotes related to its history, harvest, and use. Appalachia is a storytelling culture, and Ronni deftly uses this to incorporate important lessons into her tales. Because the purpose of the summit is to not only preserve but to move Appalachia into the growing, abundant, thriving, economically and environmentally productive region we all know it can be. It's an heirloom that just needs a little spit shine. It's time for a revival. The fellowship from food gatherings is one of the hallmarks of Appalachia. Food as communion. Food as revival. Not food as performance where chefs come out after sweating their butts off in a kitchen just to receive a smattering of applause. There's a reason people crave the homemade meals from their upbringing. Food grown from heritage seeds taste better, keep longer, are better for the environment, and preserve history. We discuss The Appalachian Food Summit, its goals, and how Facebook helped get it started, Why was it important to serve the meal at the 2015 gathering cafeteria style? What exactly does Chef Travis Milton mean when he called this dinner a "fancy-ass Picadilly"? You're in for a treat guys. Ronni Lundy is a kick-ass broad. You're going to learn a lot. But these lessons are mixed in with great stories. Or as Ronni's says, "A little sugar before your medicine." Enjoy this episode then head out to all three events! See you there!
